Looking for a way to move to #BraveBrowser as my default browser across all my devices. Thing is, I have all my passwords/2FA codes in Keychain.

Does anyone have any suggestions for an open-source solution for a cross-platform password manager with 2FA that will work with Brave?

Youtube's tantrum escalates.

Forced to concede that they cannot outpace ad blocking extensions, parent company Google artificially limits the rate of extension updates in Chrome.

No justification for the user experience is given, and in fact this makes chrome users more vulnerable to attacks injected via ads.

An Israeli technology company has developed the means of delivering spyware via online ad networks. There’s no defense against the spyware and the Israeli government has given the company approval to sell the technology.

For now, take comfort in the fact that it’s a hefty $6.4 million price tag for a single ad infection.
